DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Clophill
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry

Repair or replace: which is better?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Repair dripping taps early
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Clophill questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your MK45 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What affects the price in Clophill
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Clophill. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
